15/02/2008 - The Manakazo river proved to be the highlight of the trip; 3 days of high quality whitewater including slides, waterfalls and technical rapids.  The boys put on this first d with only an old 250,000 to 1 scale map from 1969 (the latest edition available in Mada), with hopes of finding a bridge somewhere downstream and counting on their driver to find the same bridge.  They arrived 3 days later successfully descending this classic section and leaving only 3 drops un run.  Here are some of the photos from this incredible river.

Rush, Charlie, and Patrick arrived ready to huck. Record snowpack in BC meant rivers were pumping. We got on some goods right off the bat with local Mikkel St. Jean bringing us to the ~60 foot sutherland falls at juicy flow and some other gems between revelstoke and neilson. on our way back to the coast we stopped in kamloops and, unfortunately, had our car broken into and had all the footy/photos stolen along with expensive camera gear, passports and all kinds of other stuff thats a pain to replace. We regrouped at skook with Ian Garcia, Tyler Bradt and the BC kids, and then headed out to find more drops... BC has the goods, enjoy the shots from after the theft.
